[G]I pulled in to N[Bm]azareth, I was f[C]eeling about half past d[G]ead.
[G]I just need some p[Bm]lace where [C]I can lay my h[G]ead.
[G]"Hey, Mister, can you t[Bm]ell me where a m[C]an might find a b[G]ed?"
[G]He just grinned, sh[Bm]ook my hand, "N[C]o" was all he s[G]aid.

[G]Take a [D/F#]load off, F[C/G]anny.
[G]Take a [D/F#]load for f[C/G]ree.
[G]Take a [D/F#]load off, F[C/G]anny.
[C/G]And...  you put the load right on [G]me. [G/F#] [] [Em] [] [D/F#] [] [C/G]

[G]I picked up my b[Bm]ag.  I went l[C/G]looking for a place to h[G]ide.
[G]When I saw [Bm]Carmen and the de[C/G]vil walking side by [G]side.
[G]I said, "Hey, [Bm]Carmen, come [C/G]on. Let's go down[G]town."
[G]She said, [Bm]"I got to go, but my [C/G]friend can stick a[G]round."

{comment:Chorus}

[G]Go down, Miss M[Bm]oses, there's n[C]othing you can s[G]ay.
It's just old Luke, and Luke's waiting on the judgement day.
"Well, Luke, my friend, what about young Anna Lee?"
He said, "Do me a favor, son, won't you stay and keep Anna Lee company."

{comment:Chorus}

[G]Crazy Chester f[Bm]ollowed me and he c[C]aught me in the f[G]og.
He said, "I will fix your rack, if you'll take Jack my dog."
I said, "Wait a minute, Chester. You know I'm a peaceful man."
He said, "That's okay, boy.  Won't you feed him when you can?"

{comment:Chorus}

[G]Get your C[Bm]anonball now, to t[C]ake me down the l[G]ine.
My bag is sinking low, and I do believe it's time
To get back to Miss Fanny.  You know she's the only one
Who sent me here with her regards for everyone.
